We reviewed 35 patients who received an operation for the Spondylolisthesis from July 1980 to July 1985. The follow-up period between operation and evaluation was at least 14 months and average 32 months. we obtained the following results. 1. The age distribution was from 23 years of age to 70 years of age and the prevalent decade was at the 5th. 2. Sex difference showed male 9 cases and female 26 cases, that is, female preponderance about 3 times. 3. 24 cases were isthmic type and 11 cases were degenerative type. The ratio between isthmic type and degenerative type was about 2: l. 4. Isthmic type was found at the 4th and 5th decades frequently and degenerative type was at 5th and 6th decade frequently. 5. The displacement between L4 and L5 was 21 cases and the displacement between L5 and sacrum was 14 cases. 6. In isthmic type, the displacement between L4 and L5 was 11 cases and the displacement between L5 and sacrum was 13 cases. In degenerative type, the displacement between L4 and L5 was 10 cases and the displacement between L5 and sacrum was 1 case. So the isthmic defect occurred at 2 levels almost equally and degonerative type occurred at L4-5 predominantly. 7. Overall results are excellent 2 cases(6%), good 29 cases(82%), fair 2 cases(6%), and poor 2 cases (6%).

The posterior cruciate ligament plays as basic stabilizer of the knee. Therefore the knee becomes unstable when tibial insertion of the posterior cruciate ligament is avulsed. The diagnosis may be delsyed or missed because of surgeon's 1sck of awareness or rare condition. The authors treated seven cases of avulsion fracture of posterior cruciate ligsment at the tibial attachment ares ranged from ten to thirty-two years. There were five male and two female. The results were as follows : 1. The cause of all seven cases injury was traffic accident. 2. The physical findings were seven positive posterior drawer test, seven cases of abrasion or laceration over the anterior proximal tibial surface and antero-medial surfsce of the knee joint. 3. The associated injury was comminuted fracture of the tibia and femur (1 case), rupture of collateral ligsment and comminuted fracture of the tibia (1 case) and zygomatic fracture (1 case). 4. The treatment methods were four cancellous fixation, one K-wire fixation after epiphyseal plate fusion but each one pull out wire and dexon suture before epiphyseal plate fusion. 5. The motion of knee joint was within normal limit and no instsbility was inspected at the three months after reduction.
